Zhen Guo Princess GL

Chapter 236

I stayed in the side hall for a long time, and it was the last dance when I went out. We called it the Victory Dance, and it was a music and dance for the army to go to Qizhou.This is Cui Mingde's idea. She said that the queen mother is in control, and the four sides are not fair. One is to show people's prestige, shocking the world, and dare not act rashly. At the beginning, my mother deliberately underestimated Xu Jingye in the palace, but actually mobilized 30 soldiers and horses, and specially selected the clan Li Xiaoyi as the general, for this reason, so we must perform this big dance. The difficulty is also to show the prosperity of our country's martial arts, and the king's master is invincible wherever he goes. When the time comes to spread this dance to the world, it will make the rebels all over the world fearful and dare not cause chaos.I know that her most fundamental intention is to praise her "close friend in the boudoir" Dugu Shao Dugu the sixteenth lady in a different way, but she is also happy to flatter her mother with this, so she uses this dance as the treasure of the town. At the party.

This dance is slightly adapted from the old music of breaking the battle. Cui Mingde composed four new lyrics and compiled them into four sections. There are 24 dancers, staggered and stretched, head and tail back and forth, stabbing back and forth, in the shape of a battle formation; there are three dancers, three times in one section, counting as twelve formations, all of which come from the formation in the army; In the first part, the Tang Dynasty military drums are mixed with the music of Kucha, which is exciting and exciting.

When I entered, it was already the fourth quarter. In addition to the 24 male dancers, two more lead dancers came up, but they were a man and a woman. The men wore golden armor, red robes, golden swords, and golden shields, while the women wore silver armor. , wearing white robes, and holding silver guns, the two of them come and go on the field, making assassination gestures.I knew it was the story of Dugu Shao, so I hurriedly sat down to watch it carefully, but I saw the female dancer sprinting around the field, and when she turned around, the pole was up and down, left and right, dancing airtightly, The male dancer swung the knife with one hand, slashing and slashing with astonishing momentum, while raising the shield with the other hand to dodge, the shield is also active and agile like the knife, without any loss.

I don't like it very much, and I don't know much about these martial arts, but I also enjoyed watching them, and I grabbed cold melon seeds to eat while watching - the dinner was originally in charge of the Taiguan Temple, but we specially came from the imperial dining room in the palace. I prepared a lot of snacks for eating while watching the party. Many of the ideas were thought of by me and approved with my mother, so I was allowed to offer them this time: salt-fried cold melon seeds, fried coriander, fried carrots, fried Cake balls, fried chestnuts, grilled chicken wings with honey mustard, candied haws, served with a glass of thick sweetened orange juice.

In the previous life, these foods were all ordinary snacks for common people, but in this era, they are all treasured by rich and noble families: cold melon seeds are fried by myself from the seeds of cold melon used in the Suri mansion. The contribution is only enough for one person and a small plate of more than three grades; refined honey and coarse white sugar are luxury goods, which are allocated from the royal internal treasury; It can be seen that the package of ten yuan is not far from the same; the chicken wings have to be caught and cut immediately, and thousands of chickens have been killed, and the sauce can be mixed a few days in advance with the mother's handwriting, and put in the ice cellar. In the end, there can only be one person A pair; carrots and pancakes are nothing, but I haven’t eaten potato chips for a long time, and I’m so greedy, I urged Yushan to fry carrots according to the method of potato chips, and then mixed sugar and tea soup into the pancakes to make a dish Chips of pepper and carrots in the shape of potato chips and a fake fried matcha cake - tea and pepper are also expensive luxuries these days; Hundreds of candies.

Although I spent a lot of effort on these ideas, they are very popular. The high-ranking officials always eat with restraint at big banquets, but this time they all cleaned up the snacks in front of them. I watched carefully and saw them the most. My favorite is candied haws. Even my mother ate a bunch of them, and specially sent a palace official to pass the message: "The queen mother said: You little thing, the party was well organized, and the food was especially good. Many ministers have the audacity to ask for food. Since it’s your idea, it’s up to you to decide, so let them come to look for you. You should prepare for it yourself in the past few days, lest too many people come to the door and break the threshold—but you are not allowed to tell others about the candied haws, and keep them for your own use in the palace. .”

This is letting me be a favor to the minister, I hurriedly got up to thank her, relying on my mother's happiness, I begged for a reward: "Go back to Your Majesty A Niang for me, since you look good, wouldn't there be a reward? Even if there is no reward, Do you always have a birthday present?"

The palace man came over again soon and said: "The queen mother said: "Your birthday, I don't thank your mother for giving birth to you, but I am ashamed to ask for a gift? I will reward you with a donation of [-] yuan, and pray for your mother's blessing and filial piety. I will reward you again." Your piece of wood, if the threshold is broken, you can use it to make another piece." On the one hand, he couldn't help laughing, fearing that I would be unhappy, and comforted me: "Princess, don't be discouraged, the queen mother is joking, just now the imperial court has passed away. Promise, after the next year, you will be named consort Guanglu Shaoqing, who will manage the country's shameful affairs of wine and food, and the princess will seal up one hundred households, and there will be an order when the government is opened."

The people in front of my mother are always very strict, but this person's mouth is so broken, I can't help but think in my heart, I glanced at her with a smile, and was still hesitating whether to hand out a handful of money, but I saw Cui Mingde coldly said: "Your Majesty Why do you allow you to talk too much about it? When the princess reports to the queen mother, you will be executed with a stick."

The palace maid changed his face, bent down and begged for mercy, I saw how pitiful she was, and wanted to spare her, but Cui Mingde had already asked someone to fork her out, dragging me to go to my mother.I was very puzzled, so I stopped and asked her: "It's a big festival, Er Niang made such a fuss and disturbed A Niang's mood, isn't it good?"

Cui Mingde looked at me coldly: "Look at the Empress Dowager Su Ri, is there a person who leaked words like this? Why didn't they leak words at any time, but why did they leak words at this time?"

I broke out in a cold sweat, and quickly followed her to the throne. Seeing our serious expressions, my mother ordered Li Dan to be hugged away, and asked me to kneel beside her to pour wine for her, then she turned her head and asked me, "What's the matter? "

I said in a low voice: "Just now, the palace servant sent by Auntie to spread the message leaked the words of the imperial court, and I have asked someone to fork her off, now report to Auntie."

My mother snorted, raised her glass to take a sip, and asked me, "What did she say?"

I reported what the man said one by one, and my mother laughed after hearing it: "I was afraid that you would be young and tender, and would not be happy after hearing what I said, so I asked her to tell you. It was just a misunderstanding, so I let her go." stop."

My heart became colder and colder, and I apologized with a smile: "Since this is the case, I have offended A Niang's emissary, and begged A Niang to forgive me." I was about to bend down, but my mother stopped me with her hand on my neck, gently After rubbing for a while, he said with a smile: "What's the big deal, it's worth your fright? Sit down and drink with Auntie—yes, you should drink less now and ask them to bring fruit drinks." Then he smiled at Cui Mingde: " In this grand banquet, outside of Taiping, you contributed the most, sit down too, Wan'er, and pour the wine."

Cui Mingde burst into a perfect smile, bowed to his mother, and thanked Wan'er, Fang took the gift of wine, and drank a full glass, at this time the palace servant had been released, went to the imperial court and knelt down to thank, the mother said: " Is it my fault, I didn't make it clear, not only frightened Taiping, but also tired you." He also ordered someone to give her wine, the palace maid thanked her calmly, drank and retired, Cui Mingde also stood up and left, leaving I am alone in front of the imperial court, it’s okay to smile, it’s okay not to smile, but at this moment the song is over, the dancers gather to thank you, everyone’s eyes are on the front, no one pays attention to me, so I lower my head and take a deep breath , When I looked up again, the girl who led the dance had already lifted her mask and came forward to receive the reward, but I was startled again, and I naturally let out a "huh" and opened her mouth to look forward.

The man in the golden armor and red robe is Hu Luzhong who is good at swordsmanship, which is true, but the woman in white and silver armor should not be Dugu Shao——she entered the palace with her father in mid-December to thank her, We met once, and at that time we could only walk with a staff, although more than ten days have passed now, it won't be possible to dance with guns right away?

Seeing me surprised, my mother raised her eyebrows and said, "Why, shouldn't she be the one performing the dance?"

I didn't dare to hide it: "I originally asked Zhang Siniang from Jiaofang to play the role, but who knows that she changed people temporarily." Turning to look at Cui Mingde, I saw that she also frowned, beckoned someone to ask a few words, and went up Before us, she said softly in front of us: "Zhang Siniang suddenly had an emergency, and the dancer was suddenly timid. Dugu Shao recommended himself. She has always practiced dancing, and she often competes with Hu Lvzhong. The rhythm fits well. She is well known in the teaching workshop. , it just happened to replace it."

The mother turned her head and asked, "Isn't she injured?"

Cui Mingde turned cold: "Yes."

The mother called Dugu Shao to come forward and asked her: "You are injured, why don't you sit beside me and dance yourself?"

Dugu Shao knelt down on one knee, and said loudly: "The grand banquet on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty is the most important gift of the country. If the country has something to do, even if you die, you will not refuse. What's the point of worrying about minor injuries?"

One sentence made my mother laugh, she got up slowly, looked around, and said loudly: "Dugu introduces my daughter's family, I know that you will serve the country faithfully, and you are in a high position, don't you encourage yourself?"

Many people showed some embarrassment on their faces, but the prime ministers were calm as usual. Cui Qiao came out and said: "Dugu Shao's loyalty to the country is very commendable. Please reward the Queen Mother to show the court's intention to seek talent and value talents." .”

The mother was in a good mood, and immediately said, "Yes." Dugu Shaowu was given a hundred paragraphs, and she was promoted to the Youlang General of Yifu, and she still knew about Mulan's riding.

Dugu Shao won the lottery, and his face was still calm, thanking him upright, without the slightest hint of arrogance, while the officials kept their faces clean, shouting pilgrimage, praising the holiness of their mother.

Cui Mingde lowered his head and clutched the corners of his clothes tightly with both hands, obviously his mood was already too much to hide.
